Fill out the inquiry form to start the process. From there, we'll schedule a call to chat through all of your wedding details, so I can learn your vision for the day.
After our call, I'll send you a full, custom proposal with the details, including a contract and deposit invoice to make it official and reserve your wedding date.
It's imporant to cherish your engagement period, and that means capturing it in professional pictures to keep forever. We'll schedule an engagement session early, so we can all get to know one another and you and your partner can get comfortable being in front of my camera. This also gives you stunning photos to use for invitations, as decorations, and to share on social media with friends and family.
I like to stay in contact with my couples, so you always feel comfortable reaching out to me before the big day. A few months before your wedding, you'll complete a detailed questionnaire, including what family and friends you want special photos with, so I can perfectly plan a photography schedule that captures the moments and people that matter most. Two months before your wedding, we'll have another call to check in and discuss the timeline. Then we'll have one final call a week before to iron out any final details and make sure you feel 100% prepared and confident.
From here, all you have to do is share your vows and dance the night away!

Want To Remember Every Perfect Moment?
My favorite part of a wedding day is when you see the love of your life walking down the aisle. I firmly believe sunset wedding photos are the most magical, and I'm obsessed with capturing the small details in photos, that make you see, smell, and feel the same emotions every time you look upon them. So, you can bet I’ll capture every floral arrangement and piece of décor.

Detailed wedding photos you'll cherish
I include a complimentary engagement session (you’re welcome!) with every wedding package. This session is the best way for us to get to know each other and for you two to get comfortable in front of the camera. You’ll be so much happier with your wedding photos when you know how to pose and how to follow my directions because we already practiced! Plus, these photos are a keepsake you’ll love looking back on to remember this season.

My husband and I recently got married on June 21st and booking Justin as our photographer was one of the best choices we could have made! He was amazing with communication from day one and even though he's booked and busy he made us feel like such a priority. We had a fabulous engagement session with him in NYC where he executed all of our ideas seamlessly while also bringing so much of his own inspo and experience to the table. He delivered sneak peak photos to us a mere hour later - he seriously works some magic. Our wedding day with him was nothing short of amazing! Not only does Justin bring pure talent and artistry to every couple he works with, but he also bring his larger than life personality and he left our wedding with 160 new friends (and a few other weddings booked!). We received a gallery of sneak peak photos before he even left the venue and got our full gallery less than 2 months later. Justin truly went above and beyond for us every step of the way and anyone would be so lucky to work with him. Please feel free to check out my instagram to see more photos or reach out with any questions regarding our experience working with Justin @gabrielle_carruthers

Justin is an excellent photographer! From capturing our engagement in CT, to our wedding in CA and additional memories, he was able to create flawless memories that we can cherish for life. Not only was he highly skilled with the art of photography, but was extremely professional working with our vendors and helping to ensure our day was smooth and successful. Highly recommend Justin for timeless memories and an overall fun experience to capture your engagement, wedding and more!

Justin is extremely professional to work with. He is very accommodating to your needs and how you would like to be photographed. He is extremely open to all ideas. Even if you are not comfortable in front of the camera he will make sure that you are. He truly is an amazing photographer to work with and I am so glad to have worked with him twice! Definitely will be using him again in the future!
